The Easy Way To Create An Ebook Using Open Office.

April 20, 2008 | 3 Comments

Creating a ebook or report isn’t that hard using


Open Office

You just need the right
tools for the job. I am writing this to help save you some money. I bought A
program called Scansoft Pdf Professional 4. The program cost 99 dollars at
Best Buy. The software is pretty cool, but it doesn’t work with most other
programs. I wanted to create a ebook that could be rebranded. I tried 4
different rebranding software tools and none of them worked with my
software. GREAT! I just spent 99 dollars on a software that doesn’t work
with anything. How many of you have been in similar situations? So what is a
young budding writer suppose to do?

Thats right, I cried my eyes out and threw rocks at my computer. (j/k)
Actually

it was a good thing that happened because now I am using a pdf writer that
is actually better then the program I bought for 99 dollars. The best part
is the software is free. (Don’t you just hate it when you find out later
that you could of saved your money)?

If you haven’t yet I recommend heading over to openoffice.org and pick up
there software package its free and it actually works just as well as
microsoft word.

It also is similar to microsoft office.

Download Open office here:

I also have microsoft word 2007 it has many great
features but for the money Open Office wins hands down.

Besides you can’t change word docx into pdf’s .


Here
is a cool little tool to open up zip files.

Ebay Bans Digital Downloadable products I say this is good news.

March 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment

I am sure I am going to  gett people angry just reading the title. Probably the same people that have devalued ebooks.

Sure ebay provided a quick way for people to build their list and  sell their products. FOR 1 dollar.

Have you ever tried creating a product ? The time , money and resources that go into.

I sell lots of ebooks its very hard to make money online trying to sell digital right products when you can go to ebay and just buy the product for a 1 dollar.

Think for a moment would you rather make 20 dollars a sale or 1 dollar ? The people selling on ebay really did ruin the market for everyone else while they cashed in.

The same people may have to actually learn how to market now since they ran out of there breeding ground. Ebooks may actually be worth something again.

I believe a fair value of any ebook is around 10 dollars.

if there is a video involed 15 dollars

if there are rights given 25 dollars and up.

I can sell hundreds of ebooks I read most of them. I can say some of them aren’t worth 10 cents. But there are ebooks out there that I bought for 77 dollars and up that are worth every penny.

quote : Brian Burke Director of global feedback policy

Hello…This is Brian Burke, Director Global Feedback Policy. Digital goods are often reproduced at little to no cost to the seller. On eBay, this creates the potential for Feedback Manipulation (both real and perceived). To preserve the integrity of the Feedback system, effective March 31 all goods that can be digitally downloaded or transferred electronically must be listed using the Classified Ads format.

Using the Classified Ads format, sellers receive a 30-day ad at a fixed price. This solution enables sellers to continue to market their digital goods on eBay; however, because Classified Ad listings are a lead generation tool and do not result in transactions that go through eBay, Feedback cannot be exchanged between buyer and seller.

Sellers who wish to continue to offer digital goods can do so by selecting the Everything Else>Information Products category in the Sell Your Item form and choosing the Classified Ads format (not auction-style or fixed price). For more information about the Classified Ads format, please read Advertising with Classified Ads.

================================================================

Maybe I can sell a ebook for more then 5 dollars again.

Just my 2 cents
